Saturday’s Maple Leafs-Canadiens game got out of hand in more ways than one.

With Toronto collecting a 6-0 win over its rivals, the Maple Leafs’ Mikhail Grabovski may have bitten the Canadiens’ Max Pacioretty during a multi-man scrum against the boards in the third period of Saturday’s game. RDS Hockey reporter Renaud Lavoie reports that that's what Pacioretty told the linesman.

Grabovski could have been doing it for self-preservation. Pacioretty’s hand covered Grabovski’s face, so you wonder if Grabovski wasn’t just trying to breathe.

Whatever the case, the next time these two rivals meet is Feb. 27 in Toronto.

As for the rest of the game, James Reimer made 37 saves and Phil Kessel had a goal and two assists as the Maple Leafs rolled.

Leo Komarov added his first NHL goal 59 seconds into the game.

Tyler Bozak scored later in the first period, James van Riemsdyk and Kessel added second-period goals.

Korbinian Holzer and Dion Phaneuf scored in the third for Toronto.

The Maple Leafs completed a sweep of a three-game road trip and are 6-1-0 away from the Air Canada Centre this season, including a 2-1 victory at Montreal in their season opener Jan. 19.

Reimer was strong in the second period when Montreal had a 20-8 edge in shots. He made a nice glove save on an Erik Cole one-timer and stopped Brian Gionta on back-to-back chances for his seventh career shutout.
